^ i wanna see apppaaaa!
smash
^that's what i was thinking too. where are Appa and Momo? i wonder how much of the story they're going to do. it would be so awesome if they did a series of films.
JackRapington
I wouldn't be surprised of they didn't include those 2. I would be pissed, but not surprised.
smash
that might actually take away from the visual greatness if it's not done right. they should get George Lucas and his people to help out.

i'm assuming there is gonna be sequel to this since they can't fit all 4 seasons into one.


hopefully we get to see cameo appeareances like azul

It'll take some pretty good acting for them to fit the rolls their cast. I don't see it working.

also, I am confused why they dropped Avatar from the title.

it should be Aang the last airbender. haha

i think it had something to do with not wanting it to get confused to that craptastic Avatar movie.

p.s. i saw Appa in a trailer.

James Cameron sued and won the rights to the name 'Avatar'. Whudda jerk.

Isnt Avatar(The last airbender) asianed themed? Where are the asians in this movie? The costumes resemble the dynasty periods of east Asia. I sure hope they are good at acting.

Pfft.

Just because he came out with a movie called "Avatar" doesn't mean he owns the word.
I mean the show is called "Avatar: The Last Airbender" if anything, they should have been able to keep it in their title.

Honestly, I thought "Avatar" WAS a movie about Aang and what not.
Till someone informed me otherwise.

Then this was announced. c:

I'm really excited about this though~!
There better be some Appa and Momo!
JackRapington
I saw a commercial and Appa was in it.
smash
gonna see in 3d

wait seriously? wow.

Movies with the word Avatar in it seem to always have a hidden racial issue.

Idk what to think of that, but I intended to bootleg it so they weren't getting my support money wise anyway....fight the power. lol

mixed reviews by twitter people. Sometimes your average non-hollywood people give movies a simpler review...
futura
LOL not surprised really

i would probably catch this on dvd ('cause i personally believe you can't hate something unless you've actually seen it), but i won't support it in the box office. i am slightly offended that they would preferebly cast caucasians over "other ethnicities". the claim was that the actors were hired based on pure talent and acting ability, but you're telling me they can't find a decent asian aang/zuko/uncle iroh? inuit katara/sokka?

admittedly, at first, i didn't think it was a big deal (even jackson rathbone tried to fit his role for sokka more by hoping for a tan and tying his hair up), but now i feel it's not far off from being just as bad as those old films in which a caucasian actor plays blackfaced or tanned for a role made for "other ethnicities".

and don't even get me started on dev patel as zuko. seriously, even zuko's voice actor (dante basco, starred as rufio in hook) would've made a better zuko.

and wtf is up with that kid's pussface the whole time. aang in the animated version is practically always smiling.

the visual casting in this movie is horrendous, and apparently reviews state that's not even its main problem.
futura
saw this today. it was horrible. why did they mispronounce everything? smh
smash
everyone i've talked to about it (all of 2 people) said it was awful. i'll trust their judgement and wait until it comes out on dvd. i'm so disappointed though. i was so excited.

^dude yeah definitely not worth buying a ticket for imo
